Es ist ein unruhiger Herbst in Europa, mit Regierungskrisen oder dramatischen Wahlen in gleich mehreren Mitgliedstaaten. Die politische Stimmung allerdings zeigt sich bemerkenswert stabil: Die #EPsitzprojektion ist weitgehend unverändert, mit leichten Zugewinnen für Mitte-links. Von MANUEL MÜLLER

In September, Ursula von der Leyen and many MEPs called for unity in the EP – but in practice, its internal fractures were as visible as ever. A vote on #Ceuta, in particular, revealed familiar divisions, and also some new ones. The monthly #EUAnalytics review by NICOLAI VON ONDARZA

Interesting as usual by @nvondarza.bsky.social 👇 This made me think: “this month saw three votes with an “everyone but the EPP” majority. […] If the left opens up to some targeted majorities with the far-right, some day the EPP could be on the losing side of more polarised European politics”

In her #SOTEU address, Ursula von der Leyen has proposed a "new Congress of Europe". But what is the purpose of that congress? Who is supposed to drive its debate within civil society? And above all: Didn't we discuss the future of Europe just recently? By MANUEL MÜLLER #CongressofEurope

My take on #SOTEU 🎙️🇪🇺 Von der Leyen finally names the far-right threat, but no remedies. Also no QMV reform. Mention of a vague "Congress of Europe" and Canada as an associate member. Long on symbolism, short on detail. Full piece + 14 more takes 👇 www.foederalist.eu/2026/09/sote...
